Caption: Marker detail: The Training Field Today
Additional Description: The current layout of the Training field dates from the early 20th century, when the Boston Parks Department took ownership of the park. Benches now lined the new triangular lawn surrounding the Soldiers and Sailors Monument, and the granite entrance posts were moved to the corners. In 1954 a fifth entrance and walkway were added at the southwest corner. Community efforts raised funds to restore the Soldiers and Sailors Monument in 2008.
